Sierra Roberts
Sierra Roberts from Wanaka, New Zealand, creates bold, statement portraits celebrating differing perceptions of beauty from diverse cultures around the world. Sierra spent the past ten years exploring the world with a strong emphasis on the outdoors, particularly alpine environments, spending a majority of her time in the Wasaatch Mountains, Himalayas, Andes and Alaska Range prior to beginning her full-time studio practice in mid-2019. Her travels through Australia, Asia, South, Central and Northern America have strongly influenced her art, inspiring her to share and celebrate the beauty she has experienced and has challenged her work beyond the traditional ideal of portraiture.
